$7.25 Million Settlement in Product Liability Case Where Victim Suffers Burns Over 90% of His Body

Corboy & Demetrio obtained a $7.25 million settlement on behalf of a 35-year-old man who suffered third-degree burns over 90 percent of his body when a 55-gallon drum exploded as he approached it with an acetylene torch. Gould had emptied the barrel three days before and believed it to be dry.
